Would have preferred some more notice. Is it possible to put a licence expiry calendar on the site, as it would help me to plan my viewing.

^^ This. It would be nice if there was some type of earlier advanced warning. I think Hulu has something like that if you add it to your queue. Why hasn't Crunchy added a feature like that? Luckily, Steel Angel Kurumi has shorter episodes, so I can squeeze it in in time before it gets taken down, but it can be so hard to figure out what to prioritize when you have people like me with massive backlogs.

lol won't have time cause of Gundam Wing even if I did probably would have never watched this anyways. xD

I hope there won't be anymore until after new years loosing Gundam really makes me sad and I would hate if another title I liked or wanted to watch were to be removed on the same date December 31st what a sad day New Years will be for Gundam fans. Dx

Same here. I'm vaguely curious about this series because I remember the fansubs coming out when I was in College (I watched about half of the first episode on my roommate's computer and then lost interest because I was addicted to Counterstrike) but honestly, after I finish up with Zeta Gundam, Wing is next so I most likely won't have time for this.

Wow, it's a shame that so many awesome titles are expiring so fast. I hope CR can get the licenses back soon. If anything, these expirations are increasing both visibility and demand for these series. So if they were re-acquired and the re-acquisitions were announced visibly, then demand / viewership would probably increase a lot.

I'm not the kind of guy that's always into the latest (and sometimes greatest) stuff, catalog titles mean a lot to me, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way.

This series came to mind recently.
I was Idly wondering what shows CR have had in their library for the longest time (just from memory-not looking at a list) and these seemed like a possibility. I remember it as being one of the first back library titles I watched in late 2009.

Huh... I think I met my quota for supporting that series when I got the DVDs. Not that I don't appreciate the announcement. If anything else is expiring at the end of the year, I'd expect it to be announced by now.

this series is allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllways soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cute. sooooooooooooooooooooooo sad ppl do not watch.
